I've been teaching since 2008, but I've worked with kids ever since sixth grade when my teacher paired me up with a first grade buddy to tutor in reading and math. I made my first lesson plan and worksheet that year: and printed it all out on that continuous feed paper. Do you remember that stuff? I think I spent more time taking off the perforated edges than making my lesson plans!
When I graduated with my teaching degree in 2008, I moved to a different state to work in a Title 1 school. I fell in love with teaching 5th grade and taught it for many years! I also taught reading & math intervention and 4th-6th grade high achieving & gifted students. I've taught every ability level and personality type. Being a hands-on and visual learner myself, my focus was always on differentiating activities to reach every single student.
I now work with teachers online and in-person to help serve their students with highly engaging lessons. I'm passionate about project-based learning, STEM, STEAM, and hands-on activities.
